EVE Fiction

The Story of Earth and It's Role in Eve Online
If we ever get to the point where we can return to Earth, the original planet in which player's ancestors come from, we wouldn't know what to suspect or find. In my eyes we will find an civilization far more advance than New Eden's, all the lost technology and Knowledge hasn't been lost by Earth's Inhabitants. More likely they expanded on their knowledge and grew to become an civilization that exceeds Eve's current civilization status. Of course if New Eden ever re-establishes contact with Milky Way, there the Rogue A.I. will more likely seize on this and take over technologies from the Milky way, thus creating a new war where Milky Way is in danger.

Either way, I think if New Eden's storyline ever advances to the point we return to Earth, we will be faced with new and exciting technology. It would dramatically reshape New Eden as a whole since the technology would also extend into this frontier. Milky Way's faction would probably mimic real life's United Nations, where multiple nations spread across the galaxy will be united under a single banner or they could be in a interstellar war against each other in the milky way without the threat of Rogue A.I. hanging over their head like New Eden has. New Eden's factions would more than likely unite under a single banner in effort to aid the Milky Way or be thrust into a three way war with Milky Way vs. New Eden vs. Rogue A.I. because Earth will blame New Eden for their crisis.

This would make for an exciting story-line if it ever reaches this point. High Advanced Artificial Intelligence bent on destruction of both Milky Way and New Eden, leading to new technology that can be incorporated into the ships. I can see the Milky Way becoming their own faction with their own unique technology and skills that would set them apart, over time these technology will be incorporated into New Eden's ships, changing the way warfare is fought. Unlike New Eden though, I can see the Milky Way will probably be much larger than New Eden with unexplored territory which could make up the new Null Sectors. Pirates will be a universal thing, meaning Milky Way will have their own lawless areas of space where pirates spring up and take advantage of this.

Of course we could end up finding out that the Milky Way is dead and all there is left is relics of the Milky Way's past which will still be more advance than New Eden.

All in All... what happens... happens.

What do you think will happen?

I thought we'd just about totally forgotten about the Milky Way and Earth.

We might make contact I guess, but to us it'd be like the first time, not like recognising earth as our ancestral home or anything.

I'm not huge on lore knowledge though so could be very wrong.

What i remember is that Earth is just all but forgotten myth that holds no place in the real world.


Edit:
It's been 20 000 years, so if terrans are still about they will seem as Gods to us.
They will basically be hyper advanced jove. Possibly without the implants.

Or they might have reached the utopia level of tech where war has no place for them. If that is the case, they should surrender as we devouer earth of all the technology and if not we surrender.

3. Mankind is one of the secret voices that's already been dicking around with New Eden for some time, e.g. the Force that sterilized the Jove or the one that opened the wormholes.

4. Mankind is the Sleepers, and the wormholes are the eve gate reopening without us realizing what's going on. When they wake up they'll casually kick us around a bit before getting bored and transcending in a different direction.

If you are speaking about Edens lost ancestors on earth, it depends wether they had a dark age similar to the one in New Eden too. If not is it quite possible that they are far more advanced. But this is of course all speculation because uncountless diffrent things could have happend.

Why should there be Re-Establishes Contact With The Milky Way ?

Holy ****, Tippia is back.

The Amarrians used a Terran jump drive to make their "Super Weapon" that destroyed the Minmatar elder fleet. You can infer from this that Terran tech was ALREADY much more advanced than New Eden is currently at the time the EVE Gate was open.

If they are still around, they would be less recognizable to us as human than the Drifters are.

This is one of the great mysteries I never want solved. It's incredible just speculating what may have happened and Otso Bakarti was correct in saying it was a "sci-fi writer's dream".

Personally, I wonder if the Milky Way survived at all or have been replaced by some form of AI technology or Sansha imitator. The original intro video heavily implies that mankind was locked in near eternal military conflict and war once the entire galaxy was settled. New Eden was so important and gave mankind that lifeline it needed.

With the gate collapsed, it's very likely they returned to their old ways of conflict and strife. Drones rose to sentience here in New Eden. If they did in the Milky Way, were they under control?

As any civilization keen to survive by consuming must consume and then either fall or consume more and then fall.
Civilizations keen to survive on philosophy and wisdom can be eternal.
Terran civilizations could became a worlds of libraries writen on crystal pages on the walls of their stone citadels, build by man, not by engines.
